Mr.. Chamberlain Announces that He Will
Make No Speeches While In America.
Special to the Indianapolis journal.
LONDON, Oct 23.-Mr. Chamberlain, having
completed his arrangements to sail for America
next Saturday. it is announced that he will
make only a brief visit to New York. and then
proceed to Washington. After leaving Wash
ington be will make a tour of Canada. It is as
serted that he will make public speeches
while in America and this is probably true with
regard to the United States but it is thought to
be doubtful that he resist tho te m ptation to
indulge in his propensity for public defamation,
to which he will unques.ionably be subjected in
Canada, and likely the Orangemen of Toronto

ployed men marched in body from Trafalgar
square to Westminster Abbey. this afternoon.

The red flag left in charge of the verger.

NOTHING BUT NOISE.

The Alleged Workinemen Hold a Number OF
Meetings Without Interference.
Special to the indianapolis journal.
LONDON, Oct. 23-To the astonishment OF
every body, and no one more than the Socialists
and alleged unemployed workers themselves,
the police permitted the projected meetings
which they had previously all but prohibited. to
be held in Trafalgar square, Clerkenweli
Green. and other places to-day. The crowds at
all of the meetings enormous but there
was no attempt at violence, and what little dis
order there was was so slight as to call for no
especial activity on the part OF the police. The
speeches at the different stands were violent
enough to have incited men to riotous demon
strations who had not half the to rebel
against society that these men profess to have.
yet beyond the applause of the multitudes in
dorsng the sentiments of the speakers there oc-
Cured nothing to denote that the advice of the
leaders was needed by their followers. The
thusiasm. always at high Temperature, was
raised to white heat by the assertion Of some OF
the speakers that if the police had not permitted
the meetings bloodshed would have inevitably
followed, and the truth OF this statement seems
to be generally admitted. The absence Of riot
ing, however. was by no msans due to the peace
full disposition of the crowds. The police
were amply prepared to Quell any
disturbance that might arise, aud pains were
taken to have the mob made aware of their pre-
cautions and deter rmination to avail themselves
thereof. Everybody is convinced that the
police acted wisely in permitting the meetings
while holding the mob in check, as they gave
the blatant orators opportunity to open their
safety valves. and exhaust the pressure Of their
feelings in words strong enough TO have stirred
any mob to violent deeds, yet which excited
nothing more harmful than approving shouts.
The storm is past. and the damage it inflicted is
not apparent

LEARN, o YE PEoPLE.-The palpa-
pie mismanagement of a chair fac.
tory should be another warning to the
people, that nothing can succeed when
hampered with the dead weight of
unpopularity, and when the daylight
of experience proves that for years
everything that failed in public enter
prise had a man in it who lost moth
ing in the end but always made.
When the chair factory began with
the president it did, there were those
who drew out or gave what stock they
had away, and they were our
best men. That with several other
mistakes similarly accountable for,
could not be remedied by change of
management; and it is fitting tri-
butte to the correctness of our position
and those who took no stock in it,
that it is wound up by such able and
experienced hands! 81 told you So"
The public sympathy is with the
young men who went into it, and their
experience should not discourage
them, but open their eyes to the in
evitable, when it is invited.

German Syrup within few ears has as
tonished the world. 1t is without doubt
the safest and best remedy ever discover
ed for the speedy and effectual cure of
Coughs, Colds and the severest Lung
troubles. 1t acts on an entirely differ
ent principle from the usual prescrip-
tons given by Physicians. as it does not
dry up Cough and leave the disease
still in the system, but on the contrary
removes the cause of the trouble, heals
the parts affected and leaves them in a
purely healthy condition. A bottle kept
in the house for use when the diseases
make their appearance. will save doc
tors bills and a long spell of serious ILL
ness. A trial will convince you of these
facts. 1t is positively sold By all drug
gists and general dealers in the land.

Mary Moreland of Paw Paw. She is
the widow of John Moreland, who
lost his health during the late war and
died soou after its close. He was
Federal scout and rendered valuable
service to the Union army. Mrs.
Moreland is the mother of two boys
named Richard and BAIL. Richard
was also Federal scout and was cap
tured by bush-whackers in Hamp-
shire county, w. Va, and by them
murdered near Hanging Rock. He
left a wife and several small daugh-
tiers, one of whom made her home

now married. BAIL, upon whom his
mother for her principal support, after
her husband had lost his health and
her other boy had died, was MEM
